The Origins of Qigong - Martial Arts

In ancient times most of the population of China consisted of peasants. The people would work in
the fields all day until sunset, and then return to their homes to rest. Some would gather together and
listen to the stories of their elders, while others would go and enjoy the cool night air after the heat
of the day. Since the people enjoyed the refreshing nights more than the stifling days, they preferred
the moon to the sun; that is why the Chinese calendar follows the moon -it is a lunar calendar, as
opposed to the West's solar calendar.
